BROOKLYN — A man died after being shot multiple times during an argument outside a Crown Heights apartment building Thursday evening, the NYPD said.

He was taken to Kings County Hospital and pronounced dead, police said.

The shooter had been arguing with the victim and fled after opening fire, an NYPD spokesman said.
